2-Hour Afternoon Snorkeling Experience in Gran Canaria by Boat

The activity starts at the diving centre, here we gear you up and have access to the boat. We take a boat trip between 5 - 15 mintues away and travel to one of the great sites available here for snorkelling tours. During this excursion is only for snorkelling tours only, so we aim to show you the best area to see the marine life. Sightening would be, sea wrasse, damzel fish, trumpet fish...We also have the possibilities of seeing stingrays, eagles rays, octopus, cuttle fish... (but never guarenteed) You can be in the water for upto 1 hour, we provide wetsuits and life jackets (if needed), masks, snorkels, boots and fins.

Professional dive and snorkel school. But incorrect title, you'll be back in an hour. You will be welcomed friendly and professional before you go on the boat. The trip is only 5 minutes boat ride and the snorkel location disappointing. Few fish, anything but a nice spot. I believe there really are better places! Water was murky with max 2 meters visibility.
Hi, Thanks for you review, however if you read the description it does state you are snorkelling in the water for one hour...... We did mention prior to heading out we had the start of a swell so the visibility was not on full form, however this is something i cannot control, is nature. When the conditions gets too bad i cancel snorkelling however that day the visibility was still good enough to see the bottom and all marine life. We do travel only 5 minutes out of the harbour as we go to a good site which is able for both the diving and snorkelling together. If you were interested in a boat excursion with snorkelling you should have looked for a 4 hour excursion which provides this. We offer just snorkelling tours along...... Hope this helps our other users with the explaination given......
Nice experience. Super friendly staff. We felt very safe with the instructors. Even my 60 year old mom felt safe and had a good experience.
The 2-hour trip was actually a 45-minute spend in the water. You see get to a spot 3 minutes out of the harbor and almost see nothing but rocks. A few fish around. The guides swim so fast and give you barely time to view and float around. They give you excellent gear for the snorkel trip. It is only not worth €45,- a person for that short amount of time spent. The crew is good and friendly.
The activity was great, we could see lots of fish, a ray, crabs... Our guide was very attentive and super friendly, she adapted to us, our language... we had a great time friendly!!!
Smooth, professional and safe snorkeling with wetsuits and fins. First time snorkeling more professionally and we were guided through everything. There were many different sizes of boots and suits, both full and half suits. 5 minute rib boat out from the harbor to the snorkel spot. Saw various coral fish, squid, and a trumpet fish. Have snorkeled in Indonesia and there I saw more fish and corals. But it was still a good snorkeling experience, every about 1 hour in the water and that was enough. You probably need to be a good swimmer, I don't think my 15-year-old slim teenage girl would have lasted the whole hour (she was registered but got sick at the last moment). The snorkeling equipment was great, it didn't leak a lot of water so you could breathe well all the time. We wanted a snorkeling trip that didn't have a lot of frills like food and drinks involved. Well worth the money I think.
We had booked snorkeling on the last day of the trip. In the morning I received a message that unfortunately the visibility was not so good today and if we could rebook. As it was the last day for us, they canceled the trip and we got the money back. Thought it was nice considering that we probably weren't satisfied with the trip.
A last-minute decision to bus it into Puerto Rico, from Vacendario with no real plan, when we came across Blue Water Diving. We were made to feel really welcome by the staff, (even the grumpy Northener owner was a pussycat really😅 ) All the equipment was provided and of a high standard. The short boat trip to the reef was great fun, and the hour-long snorkelling session was wonderful. I'd highly recommend calling in and taking a trip out.
